DrupalCon Amsterdam 2014: PHP from the CLI
Speakers: calevans
PHP is a powerful tool. It is estimated that it is running on more than 80% of the servers on the web today. Many know that PHP can also be run from the command line, but don’t truly appreciate the power that it gives them. You can use PHP for everything from simple command line pipes to back-end maintenance for complex web apps. In this session we will start with some simple examples of using PHP from the command line and then build up to using it as part of a larger application.
